	Great quiz - tough but very enjoyable. I didn't have to take my clothes off to have a good time! :)

	@manonthemoon: You still have the option to dance and party all night and drink some cherry wine.

	Excellent quiz, but I am fairly certain that song is on Tom Petty's solo record.

	@davidj8571: It breaks my heart, but you're right.

	Likewise, Bob Seger was credited solo on his song. On the other hand, I think the Prince song was credited to Prince & the Revolution. Finally, a couple of these songs pre-date the time period: In the Air Tonight (1981) and White Wedding (1983). To Be a Lover or Mony Mony (Live) could replace White Wedding, and you have plenty of choices to replace In the Air Tonight - perhaps Don't Lose My Number or Take Me Home if you want to avoid the #1 hits. I love these quizzes, by the way.

	@AlPal: Thanks. Good catches. I've validated you're correct in every case and made the changes.

	I'd suggest bumping up the time to twenty minutes. I lost a lot of time scrolling trying to find answers, and then scrolling back up to read the next song. At 150 questions and 15 minutes, that leaves only six seconds per song. I barely made it through all of the song titles, and that was skipping the twenty or so that I'd never even heard of. Otherwise it's a great quiz!

	Forever Young. That's Rod Stewart. Let see Rick Astely, Robert Palmer, Roxette. Where's Rod Stewart? Apprenetly it was a popular song title in the late 80's

	Glass Tiger also did a song called Lean On Me

	Eleventy billion orbs for including the Tragically Hip!!!!! From one of their dozens of American fans. My second favorite Canadian band after Rush, they are SUPERB.

	I got 141/150 here, but only 100/140 on the artists of today. It sucks getting old.

	I know it isn't within the time period of this quiz, but Phil Collins did cover "True Colors."

	Cryptus:	Apr 18th, 2012 at 09:48 GMT		2 points
	Ouch, I did far worse on this one than the first 80's one, although 5 orbs for having Depeche Mode, Pet Shop Boys, OMD and New Order all in one quiz :)

	Never heard of that Fleetwood Mac song. Or the Terrence trent D'arby song. Maybe change Terrence to Sign your name? Or Wishing well?

	Didn't Billy Idol also do Don't You Forget About Me?

	ruz:	Apr 23rd, 2012 at 20:12 GMT		1 point
	Great quiz...I got 136 and feel like I should have gotten more. This quiz covered my high school years so I really should have gotten all of them!

	Loved this quiz!!! And Billy Idol most definitely did not sing Don't You Forget About Me.

	steppenfloyd:	Apr 24th, 2012 at 19:48 GMT		0 points
	He most definitely did. I just looked it up.

	@Steppenfloyd, @bob4956: If Wikipedia is to be trusted, Idol was asked to record the song for The Breakfast Club but turned it down. Eventually, in 2001, he covered it for a Greatest Hits compilation.
